Tojiro Sharpening Stone Guide
How hard is it to maintain a consistent angle between knife and stone?
Just clip the Tojiro Sharpening Stone Guide to the back of your knive and away you go! Suitable for knives greater than 15cm.
Tojiro manufacture a wide range of high quality artificial Japanese water-stones. The Tojiro brand is recognized as one of the premium professional band in water-stones in the world. Tojiro also produce a range of hand-made, traditional Japanese knives. Japanese knives are thinner and sharper than western knives. Not for the faint-hearted.
We would like to explain how to select the grains here. First of all, rough grain is used to repair knives when they have chipping. It grinds the blades efficiently. From #100 to #500 are available in general but from #200 to #400 are suitable for knives.
Middle grain is used for edging. At your home, this will do everything for you and good enough to have this kind only. From #800 to #1200 are suitable.
Finishing grain is used for getting rid of tiny scratches that are made by middle grain and doing “Kobadome” that is a method to make edge stronger. From #3000 to #10000 are available in general but #4000 is often used and #8000 for the professional Japanese knives used. If you would like to this kind of finishing grind as your next step, this is what we recommend.
